This is the most bizarre story of the day. Apparently, ‘80s mall-girl/singing-sensation Tiffany was invited on Bravo’s Watch What Happens: Live with Andy Cohen, and during the course of the alcohol-soaked interview, Tiffany outed her ex-boyfriend, New Kids on the Block’s Jonathan Knight. Seriously! He’s gay, allegedly, although Tiffany claims she didn’t have anything to do with it (???) and that he only “became gay later”… AFTER they dated. Um…sure. The best part? Tiffany recalls what it was like to date Jonathan, and talks about how they used to do facials together. Oh, God.
Rumors have surfaced in the past regarding ‘New Kids on the Block member’ Jonathan Knight’s sexuality, but the pop performer has never admitted to being gay.
However, ’80s teen queen Tiffany told millions of TV viewers last Thursday that Knight indeed is gay.
Tiffany appeared on Bravo’s ‘Watch What Happens: Live,’ alongside Debbie Gibson, to discuss the singers’ role in the upcoming Syfy original movie, ‘Mega Python vs. Gatoroid,’ premiering Jan. 29.
During their sitdown, host Andy Cohen asked Tiffany if she had cozied up with any of the NKOTB boys back in her days as a touring mall songstress. Her response: Jonathan Knight.
“The quiet one, the shy one,” Tiffany admitted. “[Jonathan Knight] became gay later. I didn’t do it. I had issues with that. I was thinking maybe I did. Now looking back when we were dating he was so much fun. We used to do facials together. He was so easy to talk to.”
No statement from Knight has been released yet regarding Tiffany’s controversial remarks.

Obviously, they were both very young when they dated, and maybe Jonathan didn’t really “know” he was gay until he got a bit older, but I don’t think it’s cool for Tiffany to A) Drunkenly out him on live television and B) talk about how he only “became” gay after they dated. I’m not saying it’s her “fault” – it’s no one’s “fault”, he’s just gay.
But maybe she should have had an inkling when they were giving each other facials. I’m just sayin’.
